MISSIONS SERVICE

Partnering with Missionaries in AK, from AK, and Mission organizations around the globe.

Saturday morning at AKYC is all about missions. We believe missions is at the very heart of God as we do all we can to empower missions through giving, prayer, and going. Right now, we have 5 different missionary couples & individuals that we are partnering with here in Alaska (Chi Alpha & AKSP) and being sent from AK to several places around the world, some in the most unreached areas of the globe. Our partnership means that we are purchasing vehicles & transportation for them so they can physically get to these places God has called them.
These 5 mission projects have a total cost of about $225,000. That may seem like a lot but it's an investment that will see thousands of lives changed in Alaska and beyond. This money would fund every STL project we have right now, meaning that if we raise this we will be ready for the missionaries who are being called and in preparation now to go.

PROJECT FULL SEND: If everyone (students & leaders) who comes to AKYC can raise $375 over the next couple of months and bring it with them for our missions offering on Saturday morning, we will fully equip and send these missionaries as they step out in obedience to reach the lost. What can you do to raise these funds? Will you start now and come ready to equip our AK Missionaries? It is so worth the cost and sacrifice as we partner with them.
GIVE NOW TO PROJECT FULL SEND: Maybe you can give now and don't want to wait. You are welcome to follow this link and give to this goal of equipping our AK Missionaries. THANK YOU, it is worth the cost!

FAQ

What is AKYC?
Alaska Youth Conference is a middle school, high school, and college student conference that seeks to empower, equip and send students into their communities to make a positive difference. We want to see this generation filled and empowered by the Holy Spirit with boldness to shift a culture and share the Gospel. Our heart is to see students from across Alaska make a marked impact on their schools, their families, and their communities.  It is time for this generation to stand up and fight for Jesus, knowing they are MADE FOR THIS and it is WORTH THE COST.
